Speaking out during an interview with a Local YouTuber, Maxxie stated that there is a growing pandemic in Kampala of selling fake alcohol and liquor in high-end Kampala bars.
Maxxie expressed his dissatisfaction with what he termed as a pandemic in which fake alcohol that is now being sold to people in these bars who pay highly for them.
He says that on different occasions he has tried approaching the bar owners and managers, comforonting them to change these behaviours but they always ignore his advise.
“I do not know if they are doing it for themselves but I bet they must be bar owners that sell fake bottles of alcohol because they know it is cheaper and they want to make more money, But lately I have been going to good places, I am not going to mention them because it will destroy their reputation. I’ve talked to the owners and bar managers and I have exposed them saying this is fake liquor. That bottle of tequila is fake, that bottle of whiskey is fake. It is methanol.” he mentioned.

Maxxie explained that some people may don’t get it because they are usually having a good time but he can immediately taste the difference because he drinks every day and knows what liquor tastes like.
Kizito also went ahead and cautioned Ugandans to be careful because in the Longrun, these fake brands will cause horrible health complications for them.
“They think because we are drunk, they can give us a fake bottle of tequila, we won’t notice. But the reputation of your bar will die. People could have serious health issues because of these fake bottles. I don’t even know where they are getting them from but they are putting methanol in whiskey bottles to sell in high-end bars.”
The gentleman known for influencing alcoholic drinks highly advised bars in Kampala to stop serving customers fake bottles of liquor reasoning that it is dangerous.
